The Bhagavad Gita Retold

‘The world’s oldest questions. Asked again, for our time.’

On the morning of the great war, between two waiting armies, the warrior Arjuna lowers his bow. He cannot bring himself to win a kingdom at the cost of everyone he loves. What his charioteer, Krishna, tells him next became the Bhagavad Gita, the most enduring words ever spoken on how to live.

In The Bhagavad Gita Retold, Om Swami lifts this dialogue out of the distance of centuries and rewrites in the language of now. Through some thirty existential questions including but not limited to purpose and fear, duty and love, loss and the self, Krishna and Arjuna’s exchange becomes a mirror for the doubts we carry in our own restless lives.

Wise, compassionate and deeply relevant, The Bhagavad Gita Retold is more than a retelling of a timeless classic in Om Swami’s inimitable style. It is a practical guide to finding clarity, courage and inner peace in an uncertain world.
